Offline Diabetes Initiatives

I have been doing a lot of work “offline” the past week.  This has made me extremely tired when I finally get home, and I haven’t been keeping up with the blog lately.  I am working to get some programs off the ground here in south Florida, but it’s not very easy.  I have scheduled a few face to face meetings with some local reps for next month, so I am extremely excited about that.  It is very tough to meet with them because they can typically only meeting during 9-5 during the weekdays and I work 45 minutes from my house, so I can’t really make the times they are always suggesting.

My parents are coming back down here to visit again in September, so I thought that would be a great time to take the Diabetes Research Institute tour with them and my girlfriend.  I’m sure my parents will find it very exciting.  They are not very involved with my diabetes because I was 19 when I was diagnosed and I pretty much took control of it myself and didn’t rely on them for help with it.  So I see this as a great opportunity for them to learn a little more about diabetes.

By the way, I’ve lost 6 pounds in 2 weeks, and that was with NO exercise, just changing portions that I eat.Have a great day everybody.
